Papa John's has clearly been a little over-eager with its digital promotion. Now, it's facing a $250 million class-action lawsuit over all the spammy text messages it's been sending you and everybody else around the US.

It's alleged that Papa John's sent 500,000 unwanted messages in early 2010, CNN Money reports. It gets worse: at times, customers were receiving 15 texts in a row, even in the middle of the night. Nobody needs a pizza offer that badly.

Of course, those texts were actually sent through a third-party text messaging service—in this case one called OnTime4U—so both companies will find themselves in the dock. And it could prove costly: the plaintiffs in the case are seeking damages of $500 per text. Think of all the pizza you could buy with that. [CNN Money]
